Part 2
Ananya went to the door and called Inspector Khurana inside.
Ananya: Inspector Khurana, what are the possibilities.
Khurana: Kabir did you lose your phone or sim?
Ananya looked at Kabir expectantly.
Kabir: No. I have it with me. Here it is.
Khurana: Hmm...
Ananya: What are the other possibilities?
Khurana: These days technology has become very sophisticated. They may have hacked into your sim. Kabir if you leave behind your sim, i can get it analysed within 24 hours.
Kabir: Of course. Anything to get to the bottom of this.
Ananya: Thanks Inspector Khurana. I'll take your leave now!
Ananya went out and Kabir went after her.
Kabir: Why are you behaving like this ANnaya? Avoiding me?
Ananya: I am sorry Kabir. This is all too much for me.
Our private and intimate moments are all over the internet.
Kabir: I can understand how you are feeling.
Ananya: No you can't! If this doens't clear up soon, i'll pay the price. I am sure Malvika will fire me and my career will be ruined, Ma is so hurt and upset! My whole world is falling apart.
Nothing will happen to you
Kabir: really Ananya? You think this has no effect on me. Heck, the fact that this is having an adverse effect on your life is killing me. i promise you I'll fix everything. You just need to believe in me.
Ananya; I am trying kabir. I really am. but I hope things clear up soon. I don;t know how much longer I can control myself.
Next day their troubles escalated when a rival channel carried a story alleging that the original MMS had been traced to Kabir Sharma's number.
Kabir: Khurana, how did this get out?
Khurana: I am sorry there's been a leak. Also with this news leaking out, we need to act fast. I can't suppress it for too long. We'll get the forensic report on your sim today. Let's take it from there.
Kabir went towards Ananya's desk.
Ronnie: Ananya, are you sure Kabir isn't behind this. i mean,I know you love him. He's a great EIC anf journalist. But how much do we know about his personal life.
Richa: What we do know with certaintly is that he;s been divorced and that his junior Tarini's life was ruined because of him. If i were you, I'd file a police complaint against him/
Ananya: I am going to do no such thing.
Aah Kabir, you wanted to speak to me?
Kabir: Can you come to my cabin?
Kabir and ANanya went to his cabin.
Kabir: Ananya.. I... Ronnie and Richa think...
Ananya: let's not focus on that. They have a right to speculate and I have a right to have faith in my boyfriend. Let's focus on the Golden Palm issue. I went over the notes you sent yesterday.
They definitely have money laundering taking place.
And now we know that they are invading the privacy of their guests as well.
I have made a list of theories based on everything we have seen so far. But to move ahead we'll need to get back into the hotel
Kabir: That's not going to be easy/
Ananya: I know. I think we'll have to send someone else in our place.
Kabir: But that'll waste too much time. We already have an idea about the working of the hotel.. I was planning on going back under cover.
Ananya; Are you crazy? You have always told me to be careful and now you are being so foolish.
Kabir: I'll be careful. But I have to solve this issue as soon as possible. Not only have they invaded our privacy, they have raised serious questions on my ethics and my moral compass.
Ananya: Kabir.. you dont..
Kabir's phone rang. It was inspector Khurana.
KABIR: Khurana. I am putting you on speaker. Ananya is here. So did you find out who had hacked my phone?
Khurana: Kabir.. I...
Ananya; WHAT happend inspector Khurana?
Khurana: Kabir, your sim didn't show any sign of being hacked. We are trying to probe other angles but we don't have any other leads right now.
Kabir thanked Khurana and cut the call. By that time Ananya had walked towards the door. He held her hand to stop her. She jerked his hand away.
Ananya: kabir. I told you. I am trying very hard to believe in you. but this is getting beyond me. I am going to ask you once and for all.
Did you shoot and send that MMS?
